Finished reading "Tokyo These Days, Vol. 2" by Taiyo Matsumoto.
The continuation of the story in which a retired manga editor tries to launch an independent anthology, pulling together artists who are all quietly worn down by the industry in different ways.
Same unhurried, melancholy register as vol. 1, more meditation on creative integrity vs. commercial pressure than plot. The night-time Tokyo transition art is gorgeous.
4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
